A very interesting, albeit brief talk on power, influence, and effective leadership that might be useful to mine for our work with students and getting their "buy-in".

"The recent shooting has been an extremely frightening experience, and the days, weeks, and months following can be very stressful. How long it will take to cope depends a lot on what individuals experienced during and after the shooting, including whether they experienced physical injury, involvement in a police investigation, worry about the safety of family and friends, and loss of loved ones. In the aftermath, it’s often difficult to figure out where to begin. Over time, many people will ...

"The recent shooting has been an extremely frightening experience, and the days, weeks, and months following can be very stressful. How long it will take to cope depends a lot on what individuals experienced during and after the shooting, including whether they experienced physical injury, involvement in a police investigation, worry about the safety of family and friends, and loss of loved ones. In the aftermath, it’s often difficult to figure out where to begin. Over time, many people will return to normal routines. We also know that for some people this will be more of a struggle. You may need to know if what you’re experiencing is a common reaction to these types of events. Reactions generally diminish with time, but knowing about them can help you to be supportive of both yourself and others you know affected by the shooting."

The National Child Traumatic Stress Network shares an overview of what students could be experiencing (including but not limited to posttraumatic stress reactions, grief reactions, depression, and physical symptoms) as well as physical, emotional, and social ways to enhance coping in "College Students: Coping after the Recent Shooting".

"In the Eye of the Storm: Students’ Perceptions of Helpful Faculty Actions Following a Collective Tragedy"
by Therese A. Huston (Seattle University) & Michele DiPietro (Carnegie Mellon University) looks at the ways instructors respond following a tragedy, as well as student reactions to the variety of most common actions.

Abstract
On occasion, our campus communities are shaken by national tragedies such as hurricane Katrina and the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, or by local tragedies such as the murder of a faculty member or student. Because these are unusual circumstances, faculty are often initially confused about how to respond, and later have little or no sense of how effective their actions have been (DiPietro, 2003). This paper investigates the most common instructor responses following a tragedy and which of those responses students find most helpful. Implications for faculty and faculty developers are discussed.
